Guest guest Posted February 4, 2006 Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 Hey I get a thing called Stasis liquid or saliva that hangs on in the upper throat that triggers a cough or clearing. My Polmonologist gave me a bad or poor tests result because when i blow ,my soft palate vibrates ,well what happens is it affects the whole test because part of the air comes out of the nose and part out of the mouth causing a destinct stepped outcome in the results .You might have a cold or a lung problem .How did your test come out ?

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2006 Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 , Whenever I eat anything I am prone to get in to a bout of cough. I am sure to cough if something tiny or small like munched peanuts or almonds touch my throat. I normally avoid anything (Hot or cold food or liquid) from touching my throat. I drink & eat " Gingerly " meaning carefully & cautiously so that I don't cough but one mistake I cough for full 5 minutes. It subsides by itself. Some times it leaves an acid feeling in my throat - I take a spoon of milk of magnesia. I am having PLS since late 80s & I did not have similar cough before that, it started in 1990. Hope this helps you re poll. Jagan (India) PLS COUGH >I have asked this question previously and I have to ask it again. How > many of you have a lingering cough?

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 Geo, my tests came out the same. Nuero didnt like that my spacticity and sleeping hadnt improved. So he upped my Baclofen from 60mg to 80 and gradually go to 90mg. And like I said gave me 4 perscriptions for this stupid cough. Sometimes I can wrap a ace bandage tight around my chest or when Im sleeping put a wadded up pillow under my chest and I stop coughing (so I dont know how the Meds are going to help me) gary Geo conniegeo1@...> wrote: Hey I get a thing called Stasis liquid or saliva that hangs on in the upper throat that triggers a cough or clearing.
